Hip Hop Bling Up For Bid


Kanye West, Diddy and 50 Cent are among a bevy of rap celebrities who have donated some of their expensive jewelry pieces to an auction house for charity, reports People.com.


Phillips de Pury & Co.'s "Hip-Hop Crown Jewels" auction next spring in New York will sell off the trinkets of rap's hottest stars to raise money for Russell Simmons' Rush Community Affairs charity, an organization that provides education and resources to over seventy NYC community development programs.


A black Jesus diamond pendant from West will be offered in the auction, which was pushed back from Oct. 1 to March 5, 2009, according to People.


Also on the auction block are Missy Elliott's diamond-and-gold turntable ring; Lil Jon's 13-lb. Crunk Ain't Dead piece, which holds the Guinness World Record as the world's largest diamond pendant; Tupac Shakur's diamond-and-ruby crown-shaped ring, which the late rapper was wearing when he was killed in 1996; a diamond star pendant worn by Jay-Z on the cover of L'uomo Vogue; and a diamond Rolex owned by the late Notorious B.I.G.

Jay Z Rap Line, "I Will Not Lose" Goes To Court


A copyright infringement lawsuit was filed against Jay-Z and the owner of his Rocawear clothing line by a company who claims they took its trademarked name, "I Will Not Lose."

In March 2007, Iconix Brand Group bought the rights to Jay-Z's Rocawear for $204 million. However, the rapper was named in the suit because of the plaintiff's belief that he still oversees the line's product development, licensing, and marketing.

Last year, Rocawear launched an international “I Will Not Lose Campaign,” where celebs gave accounts of how they overcame personal challenges before reciting the “I Will Not Lose” phrase from Jay-Z's 2001 hit single "Change the Game."


Reggie Tucker, CEO of I Will Not Lose, LLC, claims that his company trademarked the phrase first and was subsequently ignored throughout 2007 after attempts were made to settle the matter out of court, reports Allhiphop.com.


The company's Sept. 18 filing in Georgia Northern District Court seeks an undisclosed amount of damages for the dilution of their trademark.

Kanye Avoids Felony Charges


Kanye West and his road manager have avoided felony charges for their involvement in a scuffle with paparazzi at a Los Angeles airport.


Los Angeles County District Attorney's spokeswoman Sandi Gibbons says prosecutors handed the case down to city attorneys, who'll decide whether or not to charge him with a misdemeanor, reports the Associated Press. No reason was given as to why prosecutors decided against the felony charges.


The artist was arrested on Sept. 11 for suspicion of felony vandalism after he tussled with a photographer at L.A.X. and broke his camera flash on the floor. West's road manager, Don Crowley, was also arrested on suspicion he broke the photographer's camera, as well as video equipment belonging to TMZ.com.


City Attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan says a decision on a lesser charge isn't expected until next week.

Chris Brown & Rihanna Spotted At KFC



The young "it' couple was spotted at a KFC recently out in Hollywood, California.

Does Rihanna really have to make that face. Maybe they told her she couldnt go shopping that day? You know, thats all she does.




Fantasia & Young Dro Call It Quits...


Now, I know it's know Beyonce and Jay Z, nor an Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, but Fantasia and Young Dro has called it quits.


The hood's "favorite couple" was spotted over the past year hitting up the Grammy's, and a few other award shows, as well as parties.


From what Ive been hearing, Dro's people were denying that they had broken up. Fantasia's folks were saying in fact that they called it quits. Then, one of my sources ran into Dro this weekend, and he admitted that it's a wrap. From what I hear, Dro even showed up to one event with this new chick on his arm, calling her his fiance'.


Uh oh, he must hasnt heard Jazmine Sulivan's new song, Bust Your Windows? Tasia look like she will pick up a brick in a minute, too.

DIDDY VS. JAY Z


Is Diddy dissin' Jay Z? I think Diddy is feeling some type of way for not being on T.I.'s "Swagger Like Us", hence, he made his own version," Swagga Like Puff".
Wait, there's more.
Bigs up to Illseed for pointing this out too.
He starts the song off with a Jay line"What you want me to do? I’m sorry” As you know Jay-Z was the first to state that but then Puff said, “I ain’t never went no where. I just thought I’d let ya’ll live a bit.” He also says, “I been dating R&B chicks” Hmmmmmm. Here is another notable line-“No one on the corner raise hell like this/ go to war with a Coast and get a star for that s**t!
Oops, did I forget to tell you? There's a Video-Peep This!

GAY SEX TAPE WITH SOULJA BOY?


Word on the web is that teen rapper Soulija Boy is not only gay, but he evidently has a gay sex tape.


Photos like these NSFW photos aren't helping, and I bet these aren't helping things either (again, NSFW).


Could Soulja Boy really be gay? Stranger things have happened, but why in the world would he just lay back like that and get a hummer from another man knowing how the rap industry might react.


As you'll see in the NSFW link above, the tattoos on Soulja Boy and the guy in the sex tape are identical.


If it looks like a duck and it qucks, then it is probably duck.


What do you think? Are these really photos from Soulja Boy's porn tape?

Blind Item: Who's The Music Mogul That Attends DL Sex Parties???


My girly Myra Panache posted a blind item over the weekend that I thought I would pass along.

A former lackluster black male celebrity has a big rolodex of rich celebrity men in every area of the entertainment industry, in front and behind the scenes. He does business from his luxury apartment, which is similar to a mini-command center. This is where he sets up parties and events that are very well organized and super discreet for his "Downlow Sex Club."

He's known as the "ringleader." The ringleader is paid handsomely by men in the music and sports industries to arrange and recruit attractive young men for parties. Gay male models, starving bodybuilder types and escorts are often seen on party grounds trying to get the attention of the rich and famous men in attendance who pass them around.

The ringleader still attends celebrity parties and is always on the prowl for a male celebrities who are down on their luck with money problems because of their prior name status. If the celebrity is still attractive, he moves in for the kill, offering them a way to make a lot of money. This is how he recruited a few members of a black singing group. They needed money so bad, they reluctantly agreed to appear at one of his downlow functions. They were uneasy when some of the men in attendance wanted sex, they complied after being given meth. They both became bottoms for the night and complained about the pain, at other events, meth helped them adjust, but sadly, they became addicted. They were kicked out of the club when their drug problems got out of control.

A younger black male celebrity (music industry) known as a publicity whore and someone who will do anything for fame, was at the last party getting his freak on with a male escort.

Sometimes, these parties are held on private yachts, away from prying eyes. An abundance of drugs and liquor are always on board. After hours, these parties turn into male orgies.

A hip hop mogul and a very well known black music executive have yet to miss a party. They circulate, feeling up go go boys, call boys and male strippers with an auction block mentality. They have them strip, openly grope them and make them bend over, if an escort fits their specifications, they usually disappear with him until morning.
Who do you think it is??? Leave your comments!!!
